DICTIONARY

COMPILED FROM WRITINGS 



OF THE XII. XIII. XIV. AND XV. CENTURIES, 



BY 

/ 

FRANCIS HENRY STRATMANN. 



SECOND EDITION. 



PRINTED FOR THE AUTHOR AT 
KREFELD. 

LONDON : 
TRUBNER & CO., 57 & 59, LUDGATE HILL 

1873. 



ADVERTISEMENT. 

The present edition of the Dictionary of the Old English lan- 
guage has not only been revised and enlarged, but written anew 
from one end to the other, so that there will be found few lines, 
in which the amending hand is not visible. But. although in many 
respects improved, it can, of course, not be said to be perfect. The 
author, therefore, intends to publish a Supplement to it, as soon 
as material sufficient for a volume has been collected, and he will 
be happy to receive communications for that purpose from fellow 
students. For the present work he has to acknowledge the kind 
assistance of Mr F. J. Furnivall, and the Rev. W. W. Skeat.
